Retreat participants particularly enjoy that La Folie Lodge is located on a car-free island, where sounds and nature make you feel like in a secluded heaven of peace and tranquility.

Nearby, the authentic countryside life of Laos and just in front, the sacred mountains hosting the oldest temple of Laos, Vat Phu.

“On top of the sacred mountains on the other side of the Mekong: the Lingaparvata, an abstract representation of Shiva.  The mountain gained spiritual importance from the lingam-shaped protuberance on its summit. The mountain itself was, therefore, considered the home of Shiva, and the river as representing the ocean or the Ganges. The temple was naturally dedicated to Shiva, while the water from the spring directly behind the temple was considered sacred.”
